How Nonprofits Put Their Donations to Good Use
Just two months after ringing in 2020, we all hit pause in the face of a new pandemic. While many of us remained housebound, hospitals, nursing homes and clinics experienced a surge in activity. These nonprofit operations required additional supplies, personnel, equipment, and even space, seemingly overnight. It became a race against resources, not just the clock.
Many businesses nationwide stepped in to do their part, contributing meals for health care providers and funds for PPE. Zurn recognized its unique ability to mobilize these facilities beyond monetary donations. Instead of health care facilities searching and then purchasing what they needed, Zurn eliminated the middle step by getting the fixtures and technologies straight to the facilities. The company met with experts in the health care industry to determine which solutions would offer the greatest advantage — touchless fixtures, antimicrobial materials, etc.
Zurn ultimately pledged $1 million in touchless solutions to dozens of health care facilities in North America. With the support of countless reps, facility administrators across the United States and Canada applied for various touchless and antimicrobial restroom upgrades through Zurn’s online application. These nonprofits were able to back their handwashing best practices without affecting their budget, while also reassuring staff, patients and guests.
Just over a year later, here’s a look back at recipients who took part in the program.
